Beautiful house, fantastic location, very helpful owners
The property is finished to an exceptionally high standard and owners have thought of everything. The views are stunning and the pool area benefits from sunshine from morning till sunset. The location is quiet, away from the town. It is however, only a few km from the closest supermarkets and there is a fish market and a couple of good butchers. Restaurants in Tucepi and Markarska were good value.
The owners were nearby but not intrusive at all. Pool was kept amazingly clean by owner each day before we awoke.
Overall a fabulous holiday, we have had villa holidays for years (15 +) and Villa Yanko is the best one so far. We shall consider returning, we have never done this before.

Thank you very much for a wonderful review. The guest's opinion motivat us, and it shows us how much we can participate as hosts in the stay of the guests, so that we do not disturb in their privacy. The privacy of our guests is our priority, but our priority is to be helpful too! Sometimes it is difficult to know where is the border between being helpful but not being intrusive. Thank you, we appreciate your opinion!
Dear Martin and Emma, and three sons, you were a wonderful guests and every host wants you as a guests. You enjoyed our house and pool as own and left the house after 2 weeks of stay completetly properly and orderly. We are proud to have such a kind guests.

Rust en zon in prachtige moderne villa with a view
We hebben een prachtige week gehad met veel zwem plezier . Het weer was fantastisch (25 C) en het zwemmen in het zwembad ( wel verwarmd in verband met de wat koudere nachten in 3de week oktober) en ook in de zee (22 C) was goed te doen. Leuke plaatsjes om te bezoeken zoals Makarska en Podgori (olijfolie fabriekje) en mooie tochten naar Brac (eiland) en naar Biokovo ( ruim 1750 m ) met pittige trails om te lopen, maken het een interessante plek om te verblijven. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en elke avond waren prachtige zonsondergangen te zien. In de ochtend lekker buiten ontbeten ( de zon is midden okt. om 0930 op het terras) . Verder zeer vriendelijke gastheer en gastvrouw die op verzoek ook de heerlijke traditionele Peka maaltijd voor je kunnen maken.

Wie ein Balkon zum Meer...
Wir haben den Aufenthalt mit unseren beiden Töchtern in der Villa Yanko außerordentlich genossen. Das Haus liegt in den Berghängen oberhalb des Badeortes Tucepi am Rand des kleinen Weilers Simici. Es ist wunderschön gelegen. Nach vorne hat man nicht nur von der Terrasse, sondern auch von allen Räumen einen wunderschönen Panormablick auf das Meer. Nach allen Seiten sieht man Bäume und die Berglandschaft des Biokovo, kaum Bebauung. Das Haus ist sehr neu, modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, alles ist sauber und appetitlich. Es gibt vier Schlafzimmer, jeweils mit eigenem Bad. Drei dieser Schlafzimmer sind in der ersten Etage und haben Panoramafenster mit Meerblick. Der Infinity-Pool (im etwas kühlen April beheizt auf ca. 23-24 Grad) lädt zum Schwimmen ein mit einem weiten spektakulären Blick aufs Meer.
Die technische Ausstattung (in jedem Raum große Flat Screens) und die Küchenausstattung ist sehr hochwertig und komplett, es fehlt an nichts inklusive einer von uns gerne genutzten Outdoor-Tischtennisplatte.
Das kleine gepflegte Hafenstädtchen Makarska ist ca. 10 Minuten mit dem Auto leicht erreichbar, wir empfehlen unbedingt das Restaurant Hrpina mit seiner sensationellen Küche. Man kann sehr schöne Küstenwanderungen zwischen Tucepi und Makarska unternehmen. Dubrovnik erreicht man in ca. 2 1/2 Autostunden nach Süden, Split in ca. 1 1/2 Stunden nach Norden.
Die Aufzählung wäre allerdings unvollständig ohne die herzlichen und überaus hilfreichen Gastgeber zu erwähnen, die sich während unseres Aufenthaltes liebevoll um uns kümmerten und jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite standen.
Wir haben gehört, dass das Haus gerade auf der Liste der 50 besten Villen am Mittelmeer der Sunday Times gelandet ist. Das wundert uns gar nicht und wir können einen Aufenthalt nur empfehlen!

Superb place, with beautiful house
The house has a superb location, with magnificent view over the bay. Moreover, it is very well furnished, with all required comfort. Finally, Maria and her husband are at the same time very welcoming and helpful, whilst perfectly discreet. A very pleasant stay

Each happy guest and each good review remind us that we just wanted to give our guests a perfect vacation and perfect enjoyment of stay in pure nature, with all high standards and the comfort of a villa and a spacious heated infinity pool. We have achieved our goal because the guests have recognized it. Thank you all.
Why they chose this property
The beauty of the landscape, beautiful amazing views, specific smells of the Mediterranean, sea, location where mountain kisses the sea, everything is here in symbiosis. The location of this property is amazing.
What makes this property unique
Perfect holidays, perfect and relaxing stay in a pure nature without direct neighbors, but close to all your needs. Swallows go to drink water from our pool several times a day (if you are not in the pool :-)). Squirrels in a tree eat almonds and pinecones. Watching islands, boats on the sea by drinking morning coffee on the terrace and beautiful mountain range of Biokovo behind, you will feel free and special. Only birds singing and the sound of squirrels touch the flow of thoughts. But if you are more into sightseeing or nightlife, you will not be disappointed as some of the most beautiful islands of Hvar and Brač are easy to reach from here. Villa Yanko is the perfect starting point to explore some of the natural and historic beauties of this region. It's closed to bigger cities like Split, Trogir or Makarska, and situated just beneath the mountain range Biokovo, which is popular among those who like to spend active holidays. It's just the perfect combination of nature and heritage, historical legacy in the indelible traces of turbulent history, Dalmatia, the heart of Adriatic. From diverse coastline with islands hiding coves and beaches to the expenses of Dalmatia hinterland abundant with rivers and lakes to the old stunning architecture and fascinating archeological sites makes Dalmatia truly unique. Towns like Dubrovnik, Split, and Trogir, are on the World Heritage list. As if not enough, with fresh ingredients available from the local market, true Mediterranean cuisine superb meal is never a long walkway. The Unique Benefits of this villa are large. This exceptional luxury villa with a pool with a panoramic view of the sunset over the Adriatic Sea will not leave your dreams open.
